Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 1138 Plan and Gift Talisman

"Girl, why are you running to my place instead of concentrating on preparing for the competition in a few days?" As night fell, in a room somewhere, Mo Juren put down the teacup in his hand and looked at the little girl who suddenly broke in front of him.

"I haven't seen you for so long, of course I miss you, uncle." The little girl giggled. She didn't look as quiet and elegant as she did during the day. She was clearly still the same naughty little girl.

She walked to the stone table very naturally, holding the kettle with her bare hands, and personally filled the teapot for the former, while she snorted again with some complaints.

"I didn't expect that uncle would go back on his word. So many years have passed, and you haven't been to Lingyue Sect once. Could it be that you have forgotten me a long time ago?"

"It's not that I don't want to go, but I can't go!" Mo Juren had expected the other party to mention this matter, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"After we parted in Yunhua City, I had planned to visit you after I recovered from my injuries, but a series of things happened afterwards and I never found the chance to go back."

"What happened? Is it serious?" Xiao Ya was just saying this but had no intention of blaming the other party. Now, after hearing this explanation, she immediately asked with some concern.

"This is a long story..." Mo Juren paused, without hiding anything, and briefly recounted the situation, naturally mentioning the existence of Hua Qingyao.

Although he downplayed the whole process, Xiao Ya didn't think so. Especially after learning about Hua Qingyao's identity, she became extremely worried.

"Then...what happened next? You hid in Tianyuan City. Were you found again?"

"Of course we found it, but due to some unknown reasons, things didn't turn out so badly in the end..." Mo Juren smiled slightly, and then told the other party again about the process of opening Tianhua Tower.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ya was stunned. Hua Qingyao had caught up with her uncle, and not only did she not make things difficult for him, but she also opened a shop together with him.

This... this is too incredible! And for some reason, I have an inexplicable feeling in my heart. Is the other party trying to win over my uncle?

It is indeed somewhat bizarre that a powerful demon who is at the fusion realm would take the initiative to win over a human cultivator like my uncle who is at the spirit transformation realm. I think he must have some purpose.

Thinking of this, she immediately expressed her guess.

"This matter is indeed a bit strange, but it's not a big problem. Don't worry, I know what's going on." Mo Juren nodded slightly. He did have many doubts about Hua Qingyao's actions, but one thing was certain, the other party should have no ill intentions, and that was enough.

As for what the other party's purpose is, there is no need to worry about it for now. After all, it is useless to worry about it and you can't resist it at all. It is better to let nature take its course and believe that one day, everything will come to light.

What you need to focus on right now is your own cultivation. Only when your strength is improved, you will be able to deal with bad things calmly when they happen.

"Uncle just mentioned that Master Qinghua also attended the opening ceremony of Tianhua Building. Did he know about the existence of that woman?" The little girl was still worried and asked again.

"I know, and both sides had a very pleasant conversation." Mo Juren understood what the other party meant, and then nodded with a smile. Sure enough, after hearing this, Xiaoya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good. Since Senior Uncle Qinghua doesn't think there's a problem, we can rest assured."

"Tell me about your situation as well. How have you been doing in Lingyue Sect over the years? And how did you become the disciple of Master Lingyue?" Mo Juren asked again after collecting his thoughts.

"I haven't had the ups and downs like my uncle. Since I entered the Lingyue Sect, everything has been going smoothly. I have been concentrating on cultivation since then." The little girl smiled and continued,

"As for the matter of becoming my disciple, it is also very simple. My master's life span is short, and he couldn't bear to see his inheritance cut off, so after learning about my situation, he accepted me as his disciple."

"So, fellow Daoist Xuanqing is now of the same generation as you, isn't he?" Mo Juren asked with a smile.

"I guess so, but Senior Sister Xuanqing doesn't mind. On the contrary, she is very happy for me. After all, being able to become the sect master's disciple is an opportunity that many people dream of." The little girl nodded and continued,

"Besides, compared to Master Lingyue, who is a strong person in the Fusion Realm, Senior Sister Xuanqing is still quite far behind. Having her personal guidance will be more helpful to my future practice."

"That's true." Mo Juren did not refute this point. The difference between the Void Refinement Realm and the Fusion Realm is not just a big realm. The foresight, vision, and understanding of cultivation are far from comparable.

"Uncle, did you come to the Nine Saints Palace this time just to see me?" At this moment, the little girl suddenly came closer and said with a smile.

"Are you that important? Is it worth my making a special trip?" Mo Juren remained noncommittal.

"It's just a Confucian-Taoist competition. Uncle couldn't be interested in it? From what I know about you, you have always been unwilling to participate in such fun things. But you still came here. There is only one reason, and that is to meet me. Of course, there are other possibilities, but my intuition tells me that it is what I guessed." The little girl analyzed with certainty.

"You're not stupid." Mo Juren nodded and did not deny it.

"The reason I came here this time is indeed because of you. After all, we have been apart for so long, and it is not easy to have the opportunity to meet each other, so naturally I can't miss it."

"I'm not stupid!" The little girl snorted and asked again,

"What about after the competition? What are your plans?"

"After the competition!" Mo Juren paused, then shook his head slightly.

"Not yet, but you asked this deliberately, girl, do you have any ideas?"

"After being away for so many years, I...I want to go home..." The little girl's clear eyes flickered slightly, and she looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"You, you want me to accompany you, right?" Mo Juren laughed in silence. How could the other party's little thoughts be hidden from him? Besides, going home was only the superficial reason. The real purpose was that she didn't want to be separated from him too early.

"Then uncle, will you agree?" The little girl felt shy when her thoughts were exposed, but she still asked again with some anticipation.

"You're like this, how can I not agree?" Mo Juren nodded, and as soon as he said this, the little girl smiled and went straight forward to hug the other's arm and act coquettishly.

"Thank you, uncle. I knew you would agree."

"You are so grown up, why are you still acting like a child? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if someone sees you?"

"In front of you, I will always be a child." The little girl said stubbornly, but she was a grown-up girl after all, and felt a little embarrassed. She then loosened her arms and began to look forward to the future.

The reason why Mo Juren agreed to the other party was not only because he had some free time and could fulfill his little wish, but he also had other purposes.

He thought of his stone clone. When he participated in the auction of Wanfang Building in Xinyuan City, he accidentally obtained a spirit-awakening stone, which made the stone clone show some signs of recovery.

He originally thought that after solving the problem of his body, he would go directly to find the owner of the awakening stone, and perhaps he could get more of it, and then the stone fetus could be completely restored. Unfortunately, a series of unexpected events later prevented him from having the chance to go back.

When he was in Tianyuan City, he also inquired about the news of the Spirit Awakening Stone, but found nothing. This shows how precious this thing is. He can only go to Xuanwu Realm again.

If I remember correctly, that woman's surname seemed to be Xue and her name was Rou, the same as Xue Rou in the team. She was a guardian of the Lingzhou branch of the Tianxiang Sect.

It shouldn't be difficult to find the other party. The only thing that worries him is whether the other party has more Spiritual Awakening Stones? Even if there are, has he sold them after so many years?

These are all uncertain things, but even so, it is still worth his trip.

Besides, the situation now is different from before. There is no need to go around in circles. With his identity as a Qingming Guard, he can directly take the large teleportation array to go there. It just costs a considerable amount of spirit stones and it won't take long.

In addition, he also thought of another thing, which was the information about an ancient site he obtained from the memory of Chen Yuanliang, the enemy who avenged Xu Hanyan, when he killed him in Jiuxian Mountain.

That site is also located in Xuanwu. Due to their lack of strength, the other party could only explore the outer area, but they have obtained a lot of good things, and the interior of the site is still intact.

Ancient ruins are rare, and each one represents unimaginable opportunities, which he naturally cannot miss. It is a good opportunity for him to explore them all when he returns this time, and perhaps he will gain unexpected rewards.

With these two important purposes, even if Xiao Ya hadn't invited him, he still planned to go back. After all, he had just broken through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation, and it would be impossible for him to continue to improve in a short period of time. It was a good opportunity to go out for a walk while he had time, which could be considered as some experience.

"The competition is coming soon, how are you preparing? Do you really not have any confidence in making it into the top ten?" Putting away his thoughts, Mo Juren suddenly talked about business.

"If it were a previous competition, there shouldn't be any problem, but this time it's completely different. The probability of success is less than 30%." Xiao Ya shook her head slightly and continued.

“I have made great progress over the years. Not only has my cultivation reached the early stage of Jindan, but my magic power has also become purer. In addition, I have already cultivated the Vajra Sutra to the fifth level of perfection. My physical strength is not weak. Coupled with some trump cards given by my master, I have almost no rivals among the cultivators of the same level in Lingyue Sect. I am not even afraid of those brothers and sisters in the middle stage of Jindan.

But for this competition, because of the 'Sacred Stele Forest', all the late Jindan cultivators from various sects will certainly be dispatched. In this case, I won't be very confident!"

"Are you 30% sure?" Mo Juren couldn't help but show surprise when he heard the other party's answer. You have to know that the other party is not him. He doesn't have any golden fingers. His biggest advantage is his own cultivation aptitude, comprehension, etc. It is extremely difficult to cross two small realms to fight against a group of opponents in the late Jindan stage.

Under such circumstances, the other party actually felt that he had 30% confidence, which was really beyond his expectation. Was he too confident? Or did he really have other things to rely on?

One thing that must be mentioned here is that, unlike other Jindan stage cultivators, Xiao Ya’s master is Lingyue Zhenren, a true Heti realm master.

Whether it is the secret techniques of martial arts, or magical weapons and elixirs, the resources it can provide are absolutely incomparable to those of ordinary cultivators.

In comparison, the masters behind the Jindan stage cultivators of other sects, even those in the later stages, are not much stronger, and this is the gap.

“In addition to improving my cultivation, I also specially cultivated several powerful ancient secret techniques for this competition, which even my brothers and sisters in the late stage can’t do.

This is also the main reason why Master agreed to bring me to participate in this competition. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of this great opportunity to enter the Saint Stele Forest?" Xiao Ya reminded again, her fair face full of pride.

"It seems that I really underestimated you!" Mo Juren laughed, and suddenly, he raised his arm and gently stroked it in front of him. In an instant, there were bursts of spiritual light, and piles of talismans emerged, directly covering most of the table.

"This is..." Xiaoya was a little stunned by such a scene. If she was not mistaken, there must be nearly a thousand talismans, right? How could there be so many?

"I can't help you much. Here are some talismans. I made them in my spare time. They are of pretty good quality. You can carry them with you. You can use them in the competition." Mo Juren explained with a smile.

What he said was true. These talismans were indeed made by him in his spare time during his retreat.

With his speed in making talismans, after twenty years, he would naturally be able to refine far more talismans than these, and most of them would be of high grade.

The quantity of these at hand is not large, and their grade is of the lowest. He intends to use them to enrich the variety of talismans, and then send them to Tianhua Tower for sale. They can also be considered a special feature.

However, before he could do this, he was invited here. Now these talismans are just right for the little girl who is only in the Jindan stage.

"They were all made by uncle, and you are a talisman master!" Xiao Ya was even more surprised. When they were together when they were young, the other party had lost all his magic power, so she didn't know a lot of things.

Making talismans! That is not an easy task. It is okay for lower-level talismans, but once the level of the talisman is raised, it is not something that ordinary talisman masters can do.

While thinking in her mind, she picked up one of them and checked it. She found that it was actually a high-level intermediate talisman. This level was enough to threaten a cultivator in the Jindan stage.

Then he picked up the second one, the third one... After looking at dozens of them, he found that they were all above intermediate and high-level, and there were even a lot of high-level talismans.

What is even more shocking is that after investigation, it was discovered that more than 90% of these talismans were high-quality, which is truly incredible.

Could it be that they were specially selected? After all, there are countless talisman masters in the cultivation world, but none of them can achieve such a high rate of quality.

However, for some reason, she suddenly had a premonition in her heart that these talismans were probably not specially selected, which also meant that the quality rate of the talismans refined by her uncle was really so high.

"Uncle, you are so awesome!" The little girl did not pretend to be shy and refuse. Since it was given by her uncle, she just accepted it directly. However, the admiration in her heart became stronger.

His cultivation speed is so fast, and even his talisman-making ability is so amazing, is there anything that my uncle can’t do?

At this moment, she had already anticipated the scene of the upcoming fight. With so many talismans being wasted, she was afraid that the opponent would be knocked unconscious!

"With these talismans, you should be able to fight more easily. However, there are many types of talismans, and they are different from those on the market. I will explain them to you next..." Mo Juren nodded, classified the talismans, and then began to explain.

At this time, Xiao Ya finally discovered that it seemed to be just as the other party said. There were so many types of talismans, but none of them had ever appeared on the market.

At this moment, she was shocked again.
